Corey Seager Takes Live Batting Practice on Friday
Texas Rangers shortstop Corey Seager (back) was able to take live batting practice on Friday. According to Kennedi Landry, Seager took four live at-bats in a simulated batting practice. The expectation is that Seager will repeat this process at least one more time before likely going on a minor league rehab assignment. The veteran shortstop has been on the Injured List since the beginning of July due to lower back inflammation. There's no timetable available for his return, but hopefully Seager can contribute again in early August. He has struggled with the bat this season, but hopefully he can bounce back once he's fully healthy again.

Ranger Suarez Could Start on Sunday
Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Ranger Suarez (illness, groin) is an option to take the mound against the Toronto Blue Jays on Sunday. Suarez landed on the Injured List on July 9 due to a left groin strain. He has recovered from that, but has held out during their last series due to an illness. According to interim manager Chad Tracy, Suarez is eating less than usual, so the Red Sox want to make sure he's 100 percent healthy before sending him back out on the mound. If Suarez isn't able to pitch on Sunday, Payton Tolle would get the nod versus the Blue Jays. Fantasy managers should check back on Sunday for another update on this situation.

Kaelen Culpepper Returns Off Injured List, Offers Sneaky Stash Value
Minnesota Twins shortstop prospect Kaelen Culpepper (hip) was activated off the minor-league Injured List on Friday. Culpepper is finally back in the mix after missing most of the last six weeks due to glute and hip issues. When healthy, Culpepper has been putting together solid numbers in Triple-A St. Paul. Through 63 games, Culpepper is slashing .272/.376/.492 with 14 home runs, 43 RBI, and 15 steals. The 23-year-old is currently ranked second on the Twins' top prospect list behind Walker Jenkins. Given his success this season, Culpepper could be a post-trade-deadline call-up for the Twins. He could be someone worth stashing in deep leagues ahead of the August trade deadline.

Juan Soto Exits with Calf Soreness
New York Mets outfielder Juan Soto (calf) was forced to make an early exit from Friday's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Soto was lifted for a pinch-runner in the sixth inning of this game. The team is saying that Soto was pulled from the contest due to left calf soreness. It's the same calf that gave Soto trouble last week, so this is something fantasy managers should monitor. Before leaving the game, Soto was hitless with two walks during Friday's loss. Interim manager Andy Green confirmed that Soto will undergo an MRI on Saturday. Fantasy managers should consider Soto as day-to-day, but should get a better timetable soon.

Heat Could Consider Adding Bradley Beal
The Miami Heat could consider signing free-agent guard Bradley Beal, according to the Miami Herald. The Heat are searching for alternative options after missing out on the LeBron James sweepstakes. Beal is an unrestricted free agent after opting out of his $5.5 million player option with the Los Angeles Clippers. He's not the same player that he was during his time with the Washington Wizards. Beal could still be a productive scoring option off the bench, but his overall upside is limited.

Cavaliers Showing Interest in Jonathan Kuminga
The Cleveland Cavaliers are reportedly showing interest in free-agent forward Jonathan Kuminga. After missing out on the LeBron James sweepstakes, the Cavs now turn their attention towards Kuminga. The two sides reportedly have mutual interest, according to the New York Times. The speculation was that Kuminga is looking for a deal around $20 million per season. That's probably not something the Cavaliers can swing, but we'll see if the two can agree on some type of deal. This might not be the best fit for Kuminga's fantasy value, but he could be a solid contributor in Cleveland.

David Roddy is Headed Overseas
Free-agent guard David Roddy has decided to leave the NBA and head overseas. According to Harrison Wind, Roddy is signing with Hapoel Jerusalem on Friday. He most recently played with the Denver Nuggets this past season. He has bounced around the league since being drafted by the Philadelphia 76ers in the first round of the 2022 Draft. Roddy played significant minutes during his first two years in the league, but has seen a reduced role in the last few years. He'll look to reinvent himself overseas and possibly return to the league at some point.

John Tonje Gets Two-Way Deal From Trail Blazers
The Portland Trail Blazers have signed guard John Tonje to a two-way deal, according to Shams Charania. Tonje will join the Blazers after spending his rookie season on a two-way deal with the Boston Celtics. He averaged 2.5 points, 1.0 rebounds, and 0.3 assists in 7.0 minutes per game in six contests last season. Tonje played well during the Summer League and impressed enough to earn a contract from the Blazers. He'll join a crowded backcourt in Portland this upcoming season. It'll likely take a few injuries before Tonje actually gets decent minutes in the rotation. He can be ignored in fantasy formats to begin the season.

Oscar Tshiebwe Signs With Rockets
The Houston Rockets signed free-agent forward Oscar Tshiebwe on Friday. The details of the deal weren't announced, but it's assumed that it's a one-year deal worth the league minimum. Tshiebwe has spent each of the last two seasons as a member of the Utah Jazz. Last season, Tshiebwe averaged 7.8 points, 6.6 rebounds, and 1.2 assists across 16.6 minutes per game in 27 contests. He has been in the league for three years, but has yet to surpass 50 total games played in the league. This looks to be mainly a depth move by the Rockets. Fantasy managers shouldn't expect Tshiebwe to make an impact unless there are a few injuries.

Ronald Acuna Jr. Unlikely to Rejoin Braves This Weekend
It now appears unlikely that Atlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuna Jr. (hamstring) will come off the 10-day injured list to join the team for their series this weekend in Baltimore against the Orioles, according to Chad Bishop of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. Acuna was expected to play in his final minor-league rehab game with Triple-A Gwinnett on Friday, but the Stripers' game was postponed due to inclement weather, and manager Walt Weiss said that Acuna could play both games of the twin bill with Gwinnett on Saturday. The most likely scenario now is that the Braves give Acuna the day off on Sunday before activating him for Monday's series opener in New York against the division-rival Mets. The 28-year-old Venezuelan and former MVP has been on the IL twice this year due to left-hamstring strains, which is why his counting stats are down in 2026. Acuna is hitting just .251 (49-for-195) with seven home runs, 22 RBI, 15 stolen bases, and 31 runs scored in his 195 at-bats, but he can be a difference-maker for fantasy managers down the stretch if he stays healthy.

Michael Wilson in a Position to Succeed in Mike LaFleur's Offense
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Michael Wilson thinks that new head coach Mike LaFleur's offense will put him in a "position to succeed" after his breakout 2025 campaign, according to PHNX Cardinals. "Look at the history of like the Rams with Puka and Cooper Kupp playing the Z role, the ball's gonna find you a lot," Wilson said. The 26-year-old former third-rounder from Stanford in 2023 surprisingly finished as a top-15 fantasy wideout last year, setting career highs across the board in catches (78), targets (126), receiving yards (1,006), touchdowns (seven), and yards per catch (12.9) in his third year in the NFL. The move from Kyler Murray to veteran Jacoby Brissett at QB opened the floodgates for Wilson, and it also helped that Marvin Harrison Jr. battled through several nagging injuries that caused him to miss time. Brissett is back as Arizona's starter under center, but the passing volume he had last year isn't sustainable in a new offense, and Harrison is now healthy and motivated. Wilson will be a key weapon in the Cardinals' passing game going forward, but fantasy managers shouldn't be buying his 2025 production. RotoBaller is expecting regression, ranking him as the overall WR40 for the upcoming campaign.

Kyler Murray, Jordan Addison Have Been Working Together for Two Months
Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kyler Murray and wide receiver Jordan Addison have been working out together for the last two months in Dallas, Texas, according to Jordan Schultz. Both players also reported to Minnesota early this week to prepare for the start of training camp, and they both have hopes for a big year in 2026. Murray and Addison are motivated to succeed after down years in 2025. The 28-year-old Murray only played in five games due to a foot injury in his final year in Arizona, throwing for 962 yards, six touchdowns, and three interceptions. The former first overall pick in 2019 out of Oklahoma is competing with J.J. McCarthy for the starting QB gig for the Vikes this year, but given his experience and dual-threat abilities, Murray feels like the favorite entering camp. Murray will see his ADP rise if he's named the starter, but right now, he's an intriguing low-cost, low-end QB2 target with upside. Addison, 24, had a career-low 610 receiving yards and only three TDs in 14 games in 2025, but he wasn't helped by the team's lackluster QB play. He's locked in as the WR2 in Minnesota behind Justin Jefferson, and he, too, could be primed for a bounce-back year if Murray wins the job and elevates the passing attack. Addison is currently ranked as RotoBaller's No. 36 fantasy WR for 2026.

Tyler Glasnow Facing Hitters on Friday
Los Angeles Dodgers right-hander Tyler Glasnow (back) is scheduled to face live hitters on Friday, manager Dave Roberts told The California Post's Jack Harris. Glasnow is finally making progress with a back injury that has sidelined him since May. Friday is the first time that he will face live hitters since he landed on the injured list due to lower-back spasms. The Dodgers have since moved the 32-year-old veteran to the 60-day injured list, and he still has some boxes to check before he's cleared to go on what could be a lengthy minor-league rehab assignment. In a best-case scenario, Glasnow might not be back in L.A.'s starting rotation until mid-to-late August. Remember, the Dodgers are in no rush to bring any of their big stars back from injury because of their giant lead in the National League West. Their main priority is having players like Glasnow back for another postseason run in October. The former fifth-rounder by the Pittsburgh Pirates in 2011 is still worth stashing in all fantasy leagues for his strikeout upside when healthy, though. Before his back injury, Glasnow was 3-0 with a 2.72 ERA, 0.83 WHIP, and 49 strikeouts in 39 2/3 innings across just seven starts.

Edwin Diaz Won't be Activated This Weekend
Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts confirmed on Friday that right-handed closer Edwin Diaz (elbow) will not be activated from the 60-day injured list for this weekend's series against his former team, the New York Mets, according to Jack Harris of The California Post. Diaz will make one more minor-league rehab outing on Sunday at Triple-A Oklahoma City before coming off the IL next week. It looks like the hard-throwing Puerto Rican will make his return against another one of his former teams, the Seattle Mariners, early next week at Dodger Stadium. Diaz has looked good in his five rehab innings, allowing just one run while striking out nine batters. The three-time All-Star could not have gotten off to a worse start earlier in 2026 to begin his Dodgers tenure, posting an ERA over 10.00 with four saves in just six innings before needing surgery to remove loose bodies in his right elbow. But now that Diaz is on the verge of a return, he should immediately be scooped up anywhere he's available as the Dodgers' primary closer.

Sam Antonacci's Five-Category Value Makes Him a Must-Add
Chicago White Sox infielder/outfielder Sam Antonacci has already made himself useful across all five standard fantasy categories. He is batting .278/.370/.408 with seven home runs, 30 RBI, 52 runs, and 13 stolen bases through 284 at-bats. The power is not a carrying tool, but it does not have to be when Antonacci is reaching base, running, and scoring this often. His .287 expected average and 15.5% strikeout rate also support the batting-average contribution. Antonacci has continued to lead off while moving between second base and left field, and Yahoo eligibility at second base, third base, and outfield makes him easy to fit into a fantasy lineup. He is still sitting on the waiver wire in 54% of Yahoo leagues. RotoBaller ranks him 27th among its current waiver options and recommends him for leagues of 10 teams or deeper. Antonacci should be treated as a must-add wherever his blend of average, speed, runs, and positional flexibility is still available.

Seahawks Bring Tight End Nick Vannett Back
The Seattle Seahawks signed tight end Nick Vannett to an undisclosed deal on Friday, according to John Boyle of the team's official website. The Seahawks drafted Vannett in the third round (94th overall) in 2016 from Ohio State. The 33-year-old spent the first three years of his NFL career in Seattle before they traded him to the Pittsburgh Steelers during the 2019 season. Since the trade, he has spent time with the Steelers, Denver Broncos, New Orleans Saints, New York Giants, Los Angeles Chargers, Tennessee Titans, Minnesota Vikings, and Los Angeles Rams. In his 10 years in the NFL, the journeyman tight end has accumulated 108 receptions on 150 targets for 1,012 yards and nine touchdowns in 121 games played (54 starts). His most successful season came in 2018 with Seattle, when he caught 29 passes for 269 yards and three touchdowns in 15 games. If Vannett earns a spot on the 53-man roster for the regular season in 2026, he will most likely serve as a blocking TE and on special teams, making him avoidable in all fantasy leagues.

Caleb Durbin Is a Strong Power-Speed Target
Boston Red Sox third baseman Caleb Durbin has worked his way into mixed-league relevance with a useful blend of power and speed. He is batting .236/.299/.400 with 10 home runs, 42 RBI, 42 runs, and 11 stolen bases across 92 games. Durbin does not hit the ball especially hard, but his 13.6% strikeout rate helps him stay involved and keeps the floor from falling apart when the power cools. The 26-year-old has also settled into regular work at third base and carries second-base eligibility in Yahoo leagues, giving managers more ways to fit him into a lineup. His 84.9 mph average exit velocity, 29.2% hard-hit rate, and 2.7% barrel rate make another major power surge unlikely, so the appeal is the overall category mix rather than a breakout. Durbin remains available in 59% of Yahoo leagues and ranks 25th in RotoBaller's latest waiver rankings. He belongs in the 10-team mix.

Ravens Host Receiver Sterling Shepard for a Workout
The Baltimore Ravens hosted veteran free-agent wide receiver Sterling Shepard for a workout on Friday, according to Ari Meirov of The 33rd Team. The Ravens are apparently looking for some receiver depth before the start of training camp after drafting rookies Elijah Sarratt and Ja'Kobi Lane. The 33-year-old Shepard would bring some veteran experience to the WR room for the Ravens and give them more depth behind Zay Flowers and fading veteran Rashod Bateman. Shepard served in a depth role the last two seasons with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, combining for 71 catches on 104 targets for 705 yards and two touchdowns in 27 games (seven starts). The former second-rounder in 2016 from the University of Oklahoma had a career-high 872 receiving yards in 2018 with the New York Giants and a career-high eight touchdowns as a rookie in 2016, but he has had exactly one touchdown reception in each of the last five years. Shepard would not be very attractive for fantasy purposes if he were to land in Baltimore, a place that hasn't boasted too many fantasy-relevant WRs over the years.

Heliot Ramos Is a High-End Power Target
San Francisco Giants outfielder Heliot Ramos is hitting .268/.304/.455 with nine home runs, 31 RBI, and 33 runs through 260 plate appearances. The home-run total undersells how well he has squared up the ball. His 92.4 mph average exit velocity, 15.7% barrel rate, and 50.3% hard-hit rate support the power case, and his .491 expected slugging percentage is 36 points higher than his actual mark. Ramos is not a five-category player. He has yet to steal a base, and a 26.6% strikeout rate adds batting-average risk. The power is real, though, and he has remained in the lineup since returning from a right quad strain, including recent starts in both the fifth and leadoff spots. Ramos is rostered in 42% of Yahoo leagues and ranks 23rd in RotoBaller's latest waiver rankings, with an add recommendation for 10-team leagues and deeper. He is one of the better power bats still available in more than half of Yahoo leagues.

Max Meyer Won't Throw for Two Weeks
Miami Marlins right-hander Max Meyer (neck) will not throw for two weeks after he was placed on the 15-day injured list on Monday with a neck injury, according to Christina De Nicola of MLB.com. It means that Meyer won't be ready to return from the IL when he's eligible on Aug. 4. Fantasy managers should be stashing him in the meantime due to the success he's had in 2026 in his fourth year in the big leagues. Meyer was a first-time All-Star after going 9-1 with a career-best 2.68 ERA (3.51 FIP) and 1.13 WHIP with 121 strikeouts and 41 walks in 111 innings over his 20 starts. The 27-year-old former third overall pick from the University of Minnesota has not allowed more than two earned runs since his final start in May, when he gave up five earned runs with three walks and six strikeouts in a no-decision to the New York Mets. Meyer is no stranger to injuries in his career, but he had finally taken the next step this year with a career-high 26.2% strikeout rate before injuring his neck. He's currently rostered in 85% of Yahoo leagues.

Bucky Irving Could be Set For Reduced Workload to Improve Efficiency
Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles has already declared running back Bucky Irving (shoulder) as healthy following offseason shoulder surgery, but there are still some reasons for concern if you're considering drafting him in fantasy football. Irving burst on the scene as a rookie in Tampa in 2024 with 1,122 rushing yards and eight touchdowns on 207 carries while also catching 47 passes for 392 yards as a receiver, but he had an injury-plagued 2025 and finished with 588 rushing yards and just one TD while adding 30 receptions for 277 yards and three more scores. He's looking to return to the 1,000-yard mark in 2026, but will that be possible following the addition of Kenny Gainwell? Pewter Report's Scott Reynolds writes that there's a reason why Bowles has called Irving and Gainwell 1A and 1B. Gainwell is very talented, and the Bucs gave him a two-year, $14 million deal in free agency. He has impressed new offensive coordinator Zac Robinson, and he will "see plenty of snaps and touches" this fall to "reduce Irving's workload so he can be more effective with fewer plays." It's how the Bucs' backfield operated when Irving and Rachaad White shared the workload in 2024. Between durability concerns and the loss of volume to Gainwell, Irving is shaping up as a volatile low-end RB2 target in 2026 fantasy drafts.

Griffin Jax Is Back on Track as a Mixed-League Rotation Add
Tampa Bay Rays starting pitcher Griffin Jax bounced back from a rough outing with six strong innings against Toronto on Wednesday, July 22. He allowed one run on three hits and one walk, struck out five, and earned his sixth win. Jax had been tagged for seven earned runs by Boston in his previous start, but the response brought his season line to a 3.89 ERA, 1.22 WHIP, and 82 strikeouts over 81 innings. The move from the bullpen has stuck, with Jax now up to 16 starts in 27 appearances. He also carries SP/RP eligibility, making those innings easier to fit into fantasy lineups. Jax appears on 53% of Yahoo rosters, while RotoBaller ranks him as a 10-team addition. One blowup should not erase the larger body of work. Jax should not remain available in competitive mixed leagues.

Rashee Rice Cleared for Start of Training Camp
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice (knee) has been cleared for the start of training camp next week, head coach Andy Reid told Matt McMullen of Chiefs.com. Rice will be ready to rock, along with star quarterback Patrick Mahomes (knee), in training camp practices next week after he had a minor clean-up procedure on his right knee in May. As long as the 26-year-old former second-rounder in 2023 out of SMU isn't in anymore danger of being suspended by the league to begin the 2026 season, his ADP should continue to rise after playing in just 12 regular-season games the last two years combined due to injuries and suspension. Rice caught 79 of his 102 targets for 938 yards and seven touchdowns in 16 games (eight starts) as a rookie, and he has clear WR1 upside as Mahomes' top target if he can stay active for an entire season again. The Chiefs will be leaning on the Mahomes-Rice connection a ton if both players are healthy in 2026. Right now, Rice is a bargain based on his current WR2 ADP, but that could change fast now that he's fully healthy for training camp.

Curtis Mead Undervalued Despite 17-Homer Breakout
Washington Nationals third baseman Curtis Mead is batting .258 with 17 home runs, 48 RBI, 48 runs, and six steals across 279 at-bats. He went 3-for-5 with a double and a run scored Monday at Colorado before going hitless Tuesday and sitting Wednesday. Even with the quiet finish to the series, Mead is 22-for-55 (.400) with three homers in July. Mead's Yahoo roster rate has climbed to 52%, but that still leaves him available in nearly half of leagues. He also qualifies at first and second base, giving managers several ways to fit his bat into the lineup. RotoBaller ranks Mead 15th among its latest waiver options, first at third base, and recommends him in 10-team formats. The breakout is no longer speculative. Mead should be rostered wherever he remains available.

Patrick Mahomes Fully Cleared for Training Camp Practice
Updating a previous report, Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said on Friday that quarterback Patrick Mahomes (knee) has been fully cleared to participate in the start of training camp practices next week, according to Ari Meirov of The 33rd Team. A previous report from ESPN's Jeremy Fowler suggested that Mahomes was hoping to take part in 11-on-11 team work next week after being limited to seven-on-seven drills during the offseason program while rehabbing a torn ACL and LCL in his left knee from late last season. It appears that Mahomes has gotten the clearance. The 30-year-old three-time Super Bowl MVP and two-time regular-season MVP still has boxes to check, but barring a setback during camp and the preseason, he figures to be KC's starting QB for Week 1 against the division-rival Denver Broncos on Monday Night Football. Going up against Denver's stout defense out of the gates will be a good test of Mahomes' health if he plays. We've learned not to bet against Mahomes at this point, but his redraft and dynasty stock going into 2026 is as low as it's ever been as he returns from a serious knee injury. Draft him as a low-end QB1 with upside if the Chiefs' offense can bounce back.

Bogdan Guskov An Underdog At UFC Abu Dhabi
Bogdan Guskov will look to get back in the win column when he takes on former light heavyweight champion Magomed Ankalaev in the main event of UFC Abu Dhabi on Saturday. Guskov is stepping in on relatively short notice after former title challenger Khalil Rountree Jr. was forced to withdraw. "Hitman" was last seen in action in December at UFC 323, where he fought Jan Błachowicz to a majority draw. DraftKings sees Guskov as a big underdog with a salary of $6,700.

Seth McGowan Needs the RB2 Job to Matter
Indianapolis Colts running back Seth McGowan has a simple path to fantasy relevance: beat DJ Giddens for the job behind Jonathan Taylor. The seventh-round rookie ran for 725 yards and 12 touchdowns at Kentucky, with another 126 yards on 19 catches. There is some appeal here. McGowan has the size for short-yardage work, and Taylor handled 323 carries last season. The problem is that Indianapolis has not promised meaningful weekly touches to its backup, and Giddens owns better draft capital after going in the fifth round a year earlier. RotoBaller still has McGowan at rookie RB11, but neither Colts reserve is being drafted inside the top 70 backs. That makes McGowan a deep dynasty stash, not a redraft sleeper. Until he wins the RB2 job, he is mostly an insurance bet with no standalone value.

Patrick Mahomes Hoping to Take Part in 11-on-11 Workouts Next Week
ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reports that Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes (knee) is hoping to take part in 11-on-11 team drills when the team starts up training camp practices next week. Mahomes' rehab from a torn ACL and LCL in his left knee late last season has gone well this offseason, but he was limited to seven-on-seven work during the offseason program. Regardless of what Mahomes does on the field this summer, Fowler says that the Chiefs are going to be extra cautious with the star signal-caller. The 30-year-old two-time MVP and six-time Pro Bowler wants to eventually get back into a normal practice routine, and he still would like to get some action in a preseason game as well before being a full-go for the Week 1 regular-season opener on Monday night against the division-rival Denver Broncos. Mahomes has yet to be cleared for 11-on-11 work in camp, and he has some boxes to check before being ready for the season opener in early September, but all signs right now point to him having a realistic shot to get there. Coming off a serious knee injury in a Chiefs offense that is looking to regain its identity, Mahomes is considered a low-end QB1 in fantasy with more risk than ever before.

Stefon Diggs Is a Cheap Bet for Contenders
Free-agent wide receiver Stefon Diggs is still waiting on a team after catching 85 passes for 1,013 yards and four touchdowns with New England last season. The production says there is something left. The empty depth-chart line is why the price has cratered. RotoBaller ranks him WR68 in dynasty and WR62 for PPR redraft, with the newest all-position dynasty list placing him 145th overall. The NFL has closed its conduct investigation without discipline, and multiple teams have reportedly checked in, but no landing spot means no target projection. That makes Diggs more useful to contenders than rebuilders. He is worth a cheap inquiry in dynasty and a late redraft stash, not a player to draft as though last year's role will follow him. Once he signs, the market may move quickly. Until then, managers are buying the possibility of a role, not the role itself.
